Most people indulge in the sushi at a Japanese restaurant. Getting it freshly made by sushi experts is the best way to eat it. It’s no surprise that Japanese restaurants in Gulfport, MS, are a popular destination for sushi lovers everywhere since it’s right on the coast. Here are three popular types of sushi you may experience while in Gulfport.
Maki
Maki
is one of the most well-known types of sushi you’ll find. It consists
of fish and some type of vegetable wrapped in rice and then seaweed.
There is a more “western version” called Uramaki where the
fish and veggies are wrapped in the seaweed first and then the rice.
Tempura
For
people who may be nervous about eating raw fish, Tempura may be a
better choice. It’s basically a Maki or Uramaki roll that contains
lightly battered, fried fish. Shrimp Tempura is the most popular
type.
Tiger Roll
This sushi has crab, rice, and cucumber wrapped in seaweed and rolled in rice. It features Tempura shrimp (more specifically the tiger prawn shrimp which is where the name comes from) and avocado on the top. An alternate version of this, the California roll, will contain the shrimp and avocado on the inside. It may also have a different kind of sauce.
